You’ll work closely with the founders to define the GTM strategy, acquire and onboard clients, ensure seamless delivery and compliance, and build scalable operational models for global expansion.

This is a strategic leadership role with hands‑on execution in the early phase — ideal for someone who has scaled staffing, RPO, HR tech, or EOR businesses across India or international markets (especially the US).

Key Responsibilities

• Define and own the P&L and growth roadmap for the EOR and staffing verticals.
• Build the business model, pricing strategy, and delivery playbooks for scale.
• Collaborate with founders to set quarterly and annual goals for revenue, client growth, and operational excellence.
• Drive innovation in service offerings, ensuring differentiation in a competitive global market.

2. Business Development & Client Acquisition

• Identify, pitch, and onboard US‑and India‑based startups, SMBs, and enterprises seeking to build remote or on‑site teams.
• Drive outbound sales, partnerships, and alliances with accelerators, VC networks, and HR leaders.
• Build and nurture strong relationships with CXOs, founders, and HR decision‑makers.
• Own pipeline management and conversion metrics, ensuring predictable revenue growth.

3. Operations & Delivery

• Oversee end‑to‑end onboarding, payroll, compliance, and HR operations for all EOR and staffing employees.
• Ensure 100% compliance with employment, taxation, and labor regulations across India and client geographies.
• Collaborate with internal and external partners for contracts, documentation, benefits, and lifecycle management.
• Drive excellence in employee experience, retention, and client satisfaction through process standardization and automation.
• Build and lead a high‑performing operations, compliance, and client success team.
• Establish a culture of accountability, ownership, and continuous improvement.
• Foster collaboration across sales, legal, HR, finance, and tech functions for seamless delivery.
• Implement data‑driven reporting systems and dashboards for performance visibility.

5. Partnerships & Expansion

• Forge partnerships with legal, payroll, and compliance firms across India, the US, and emerging markets.
• Expand the delivery footprint into new talent markets such as Philippines, LATAM, and Eastern Europe.
• Explore strategic alliances with global staffing agencies and HR tech platforms to strengthen the EOR offering.

What We’re Looking For

• 5–15 years of experience in Staffing, EOR, RPO, or Global Talent Solutions.
• Proven success in owning P&L, building teams, and scaling B2B or service‑based business lines.
• Deep understanding of employment laws, compliance, and payroll operations (India or international markets).
• Exposure to working with global clients (especially US‑based companies).
• Strong sales, negotiation, and stakeholder management skills.
• Entrepreneurial mindset with bias for action and comfort in a high‑growth, fast‑paced startup environment.
• Experience with recruitment automation, global mobility, or HR tech is a plus.
